WITH PEACE DEAL AHEAD STRAITS OF HORMUZ REOPENS

Is the war with Iran near the end?

By: Derek Varsalona

Today, oil is going down in value, leaving the promising job market and a promising oil market, and inflation might be on a downward trajectory.  As of right now, Lebanon has agreed to reopen the Straits of Hormuz.  As of right now, Hezbollah has accepted the Peace Deal that was put forward by President Trump. Oil is now going down in value.

President Trump seems to be making the right calls in the world market.  Oil is now going down.  This is going to lead to a stable world and a stable market.  Watch for oil prices to go down and life to get less expensive.  Maybe I was wrong that the world wants oil prices to go up, but I still think that war is not good for the human race; it is good and profitable for the business aspect. 

Amazingly, Hezbollah has accepted President Trump's peace offer.  I say if President Trump pulls this off, he should be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.   As a result, Lebanon has agreed to reopen the Straits of Hormuz.  The opening of the Straits of Hormuz will lead to more free trade, a reduction in oil prices, and more peace with the world.  As always, comments accepted.

TO BE SAFE, AMERICA MUST STAY OUT OF OTHERS AFFAIRS

 IRAN AND US HEAD FOR NEW ATTACKS

By: Derek Varsalona

President Trump and the Ayatollah Khamenei ordered new attacks on each other in the war in Iran on Monday.  I am against this war, but the good thing about this is that Americans do not have to fight the war on their home soil.  

But what I am afraid d of the most is that there is going to be an attack such as September 11, 2001, on America on American soil.  I am against this war and still am.  It would be nice to bring all the troops home from all over the world, but we are the world's policeman.  The problem with being the world's policeman is that the world hates us, and rightfully so.  We can not just let people be within their own culture.  It is better to let live and let live than try to change the world.  You can not Americanize the world.  If the people wanted to act like Americans, they would live in America.  As always, comments accepted.

PRESIDENT TRUMP TO HEADLINE GREAT AMERICAN STATE FAIR

MUSICIANS PULL OUT OF GREAT AMERICAN STATE FAIR

I believe that on July 4, 2026, President Trump will host the Great American State Fair on the National Mall in Washington, DC.  I am trying to do a comedic act for the event and already signed up this morning after finding out about it on Google News.

Most of my comedy will do with overcoming my disabilities and some politics.  I will promise to be an EOO Equal Opportunity Offender.   President Trump has the right to celebrate America.  If you do not like him you have the right not to attend the event.  As for me I do like President Trump as a Libertarian.  As always comments accepted.

PRESIDENT TRUMP TO WEIGH PEACE OPTIONS WITH IRAN

NO DEAL WILL BE REACHED WITH IRAN

By: Derek Varsalona

 New York Times Disability Fellow

No deal is going to be reached between Iran and President Trump, I predict.  That is because both Trump and the rest of the world want a good war to continue.  The fact is, the world loves war even though they say they hate it.  It increases news ratings, people love to watch the war on TV and YouTube, if that is such a thing these days, or better yet, watch the short version on TikTok.

An agreement to end the war remains uncertain.  Let us face it, there is not going to be a deal to end the war.  Everyone loves a good war, and the people suffer with lives lost and high gas prices.  

The real issue then becomes to drill for oil and worry later.  The fact is, we buy oil from countries that want Americans dead.  So in the end, we are supporting terrorism.

Iran says President Trump must act first.  But does President Trump really want a deal?  The best deal for Trump is if he can acquire land in Iran for a new casino hotel.  The US Navy has a blockade on Iran, which is not going to help the situation and raise oil prices.  As always, comments accepted.

THE WORLD LOVE THE WAR BETWEEN IRAN AND US IT SELLS

 PRESIDENT TRUMP YET TO COMMENT ON IRAN DEAL

By: Derek Varsalona

Let us face it, world, there probably will not be a deal between the United States and Iran.  People close to President Trump claim that there is a deal in place, but President Trump has yet to sign off on it.  That is because President Trump is a war monger, and so is the rest of the world.

America has never shied away from a Great War.  Americans love war.  The media loves it as it increases their ratings, which generates revenue.  A war sells and is good for business.  The oil executives love war since it increases their profits as the price of oil still goes up.

As of right now, President Trump has not given his approval on the Iran-US Agreement.  Do not look for that to come any time soon.  What I think President Trump wants is to take over the Iranian oil supply and the land to build a new casino.  As always, comments are accepted.

The world loves a great war. War sells.

SUPPORT VIRGINIA DISABILITY EVACUATION PLAN

  SUPPORT EMERGENCY MEDICAL DRILLS DISABLED

By: Derek Varslona

                                       NY TIMES DISABILITY FELLOW

The Virginia legislature is now considering passing legislation that would allow emergency medical and evacuation drills for people and organizations with disabilities.   Under this bill, it would become law that emergency medical drills must be conducted to protect the lives and safety of individuals with disabilities.  The law, if signed, will be on my birthday, September 1.

I am definitely in support of this bill.  Every household and business must have an emergency evacuation plan for people with disabilities.  People with disabilities rely on their friends, family, and caregivers for emotional and economic support.  They also rely on others to evacuate them in harmful situations.  Let us support this bill and hopeful law to make it more reasonable for people with disabilities to know how to evacuate in an emergency in a life-threatening or life-altering situation.  As always, comments are accepted.

THE WORLD IS MAKING MONEY OFF IRAN WAR

 THE WORLD ALWAYS WANTED WAR

By: Derek Varsalona

Let's face it, world.  You like war.  That is because war sells, peace doesn't.  If you have peace, you are not making money at the moment.  But every time a war starts, the defense industry makes money.

President Trump and Republicans, for that matter, have never met a war that they didn't like.  That is because war sells.  It sells oil as prices for gasoline and oil keep going up.   As of right now, crude oil is 93.90 a gallon.  The price is going to keep going up as the war drags on.

America, under the direction of President Trump, has launched a fresh new bout of airstrikes in Tehran.  If this keeps up, I am afraid of a terrorist attack here on American soil by Iranian nationals or an attack on an embassy and American interests overseas.

Instead of war, we should conduct peacekeeping missions.  Let America open an embassy in Tehran and Iran open an embassy in Washington, DC.  We had one before President Carter screwed up the Iran-Contra Affair.  As always, comments accepted.

The world makes money off war.
